Hypothetical Case Study—Migrating from Tivoli NetView › Composition of the Migration Team
Composition of the Migration Team
Black Lion Telecom’s IT management assemble a team to migrate their NCCF network management system from NetView. Between them, the team members share the following skills and experience:
- NetView REXX coding—Programmers analyze the procedures and make any necessary changes to the REXX procedures to ensure that they work under CA NetMaster.
- Network administration—Network administrators help with the procedure analysis, identify which CA NetMaster features are of use, and implement new NCL procedures to complement the REXX procedures. Because CA NetMaster is new to them, they are learning it themselves.
- z/OS network operations—Network operators are the current end users of the NetView REXX procedures. They test the migrated and new procedures, and verify that they are happy with the final function provided.
- Process analysis and technical writing—Analysts and writers update the Black Lion Telecom Data Center’s network operations instructions to incorporate any changes resulting from the migration. They also produce new training material.
Black Lion Telecom also has a CA consultant assigned to them to help with the migration.
